Soon a liter of gasoline will cost as much as a bad bottle of wine. I would rather pay a bit more get better wine and complain about the price of oil.

Replying to [Admin]:Manufacturing journalist Thomas R. Cutler recently profiled, "The value for North American Exporting to Europe Proves Manufacturing Profit Center for 2008" in the current issue of Automation.com. According to Cutler, "The dollar, having steadily lost value against major currencies over the past few years, has helped exports; the weak dollar will only continue to make local goods more affordable around the world and give exporters an advantage against otherwise competitive European rivals. From technology manufacturing companies to medical devices manufacturers, all are poised to experience significant international sales benefits in 2008 as long as the marketing support tools are positioned and measurable."

and by the way "drink, don't drive".... I would rather save money on a good bottle of wine than on gas.

Replying to [Admin]:Prices are sure to go up for any commodity that needs to be transported a significant distance to its final destination and any products whose production process requires significant amounts of energy. In the medium term, adaptation to biodeisel, solar, nuclear and other alternative fuels should bring energy costs back down.
